Jun 16th 2011 10:46AM (Joystiq)I always read about people saying, DLC is expensive/why are they putting out new DLC so soon, etc, etc, but if you do a dollar/hr comparison it's cheaper than going to the movies.
Let's say you buy the game for $60 and all 3 DLC's for $45. That's $105. Now if you play the game for ~250 hrs (which is probably a low estimate) then you have $1 getting you ~2.4 hrs of entertainment time.
If you go to the movies, $10 for a ticket and ~2 hrs for the movie. So you have $1 getting you ~0.2 hrs of entertainment.
That's a pretty big difference.
Of course you always have the option of not going to the movies. :p

Jul 7th 2010 10:18PM (Engadget)It's really not that bad reading on a cellphone. I've read about 10 full novels on Blackberry. No problems at all (well, except for the fact that it was a lot of page turns). Not bashing e-readers at all, just saying IMO LCD screens aren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be.
